Research on Influences of Transient High IOP during LASIK on Retinal Functions and Ultrastructure.

Objectives. To study the influences of transient high intraocular pressure(IOP) during LASIK on retinal functions and ultrastructure. Methods.

Voltage-dependence of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic current frequency and amplitude in tectal neurons of Xenopus.

Experiments were performed to study the voltage-dependence of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic current (mIPSC) frequency and amplitude using patch-clamp technique with whole cell recording in optic tectal slices of Xenopus. The following results have been observed. (1) When the membrane potentials of a neuron were depolarized or hyperpolarized stepwise from a resting potential via recording pipette to inject a DC current, the frequency and/or amplitude of mIPSCs increased or decreased respectively.

[Analysis of anthropometry on head and eye for stipulating of children's spectacle frames].

Objective: To investigate the normal value of six parameters of head and eye in Chinese children, including interorbit distance (IOD), interpupillary distance (IPD), superior otobasion-ectocochion distance (obs-ec), intersuperior otobasion distance (obs-obs), exophthalmos and nasal basis angle, for stipulating the sizes of children spectacle frames.

Methods: The value of these six parameters in 10 171 children ages 5 to 17 years old were measured with caliper in four cities and the results were analyzed.

Results: The IOD, IPD, obs-ec and obs-obs were increased and positively correlated with the age.
